10. Linkedln
According to Blogger Deb Shinder, certain applications like Linkedln, Netflix, and Foursquare exposed other types of personal data in plain text on cell phones. They could be emails sent from the application by a Linkedln member, or the movie queue of a Netflix app user, or search history under Foursquare's Places tab.
Shinder also states in a post that 20 percent of the Android Applications give rise to some security and privacy issues or the other. It is a hard job to find out which ones are safe and which are risky.
However, before installing any software, study in detail the policies of your company. If your company allows installing a software, then still make sure that it is safe in order to avoid saying sorry later.
